Thank you all for your early support! In less than 24 hours “The Path” is already number 36 on Amazon.com’s Comparative Religion List! I am truly grateful!
As some of you may have noticed, I’ve been a bit absent on here lately. Well, I have been finishing up my book, which has been an almost 10 year long project. It has really been a labor of love, and to be honest, I wasn’t sure that I would ever actually finish it, but I finally have, and it has now been published by Stone Guild Publishing!
I appreciate all of the kind words and support that everyone has given me over the years, and I am very excited to finally be able to present this book.
From the Back Cover:
Jason E. Marshall is a practicing attorney in Oklahoma, where he lives with his wife and children. Jason holds a B.A. in Political Science, with an emphasis in International Relations and Cultural Studies, as well as a Juris Doctorate. Jason became interested in the study of comparative religion during his undergraduate studies, after undergoing a truly transformational experience during an introductory comparative religion course. After his initial transformational experience, Jason undertook a personal journey to learn more about the various religions of the world in order to gain a better understanding of the ties that unite humanity, as well as his own true nature, and ultimately God. What began as personal notes from his studies and journeys became the genesis of this book.
Rather than the normal dry recitation of facts that highlight the differences among the world religions, in The Path, Jason explores the seven major religions of the world in order to highlight the ties that should unite, rather divide, humanity. Jason also shows how the teachings and insights from the various world religions can be applied to anyone’s journey of personal and spiritual development, regardless of one’s particular path or spiritual background.
In order to kick this book off, I am going to have a contest where I will give away two (2) free signed copies via random drawing on September 30, 2013. This is how it will work. Every “Like” on the blog will get one (1) entry, and every “share” will get three (3) entries.
There will also be a Facebook page contest with similar rules (Yes you can enter both contests). Please visit the Facebook Page at: https://www.facebook.com/ThePathBook

I am so very proud of you. You might not remember a poster that hangs in our hall closet. It is very important to me, and it has helped me throughout my life. It says, “Happy is the man who dreams dreams and is willing to pay the price to make them come true.” I believe this saying describes you, my son–never quit dreaming dreams. Love, Mom

I just finished reading “The Path” five minutes ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks to my dear friend, Judy Birdwell King, I ordered my copy from Amazon and read it in two days. I, too am on my own spiritual journey and found your concise explanations of the seven major religions very helpful. Your idea of embracing the best of all of these religions is such good advice. Amen to peace and harmony! Thank you for this refreshing, thought-provoking book

Dear Jason!
How very wonderful to return here to discover this wonderful news!! Warmest congratulations to you and for your years of hard work coming to beautiful fruition. I especially love the part in your introduction which says that “in The Path, Jason explores the seven major religions of the world in order to highlight the ties that should unite, rather divide, humanity.”
I can’t think of a more vital work than this at this time in mankind’s history.
Thank you and I will be sure to get a copy from Amazon. I do hope at some point you would also research the Bahai Faith, a major world religion which central tenet is the oneness of God, oneness of man, oneness of religion. http://www.bahai.org/
With warmest wishes to you and your family!

p.s. And here’s another round of congratulations on the arrival of baby John! Sharing in your joy.
